Family Literacy Day
Family Literacy - it only takes 15 minutes of fun!
Family Literacy Day was created in 1999 by ABC Life Literacy Canada to raise awareness of the importance of reading and engaging in other literacy-related activities as a family.
NSEE is celebrating the day on Jan. 31st with the theme “Reading Takes You Wonderful Places”.
Remember to wear your PJ's!!
Doing an activity together as a family for just 15 minutes a day can help develop long-lasting literacy skills in children and strengthen the literacy skills of adults. Activities can be as easy as:
We Wish You Joy
We wish you joy all though your holidays
We wish you good luck that forever stays.
We wish you the love of family and friends
We wish you happy days that never ever end
Merry Christmas to you and your family!!
